Most of my students are kids and they love the kinds of activity that I found in this site. I believe that these activities would help them in the classroom.

Interestingly enough, schools often seem to discourage activities with these distributed forms of knowledge and resources, instead focusing on testing for what students have "inside their heads". However, I think it's just as important to recognize, evaluate, and help develop students' strategies for learning, collaborating, and accessing knowledge that they don't already possess, as this seems to be much more aligned with what we do as adults. I mean, I don't know all sorts of things, but I have pretty good strategies in place for finding them out.

experts and novices participate in the same areas and activities in affinity spaces. So, as I mentioned previously, novices aren't prevented from engaging in creative activities that they find interesting, even if these activities are challenging for them. And, through working in the same space as experts, novices are able to benefit from this exposure, by asking questions, collaborating, and by observing how experts go about certain tasks.

I've enjoyed Larry Ferlazzo's tweets and posts for several years now, but seeing the wealth of links on his blog and trawling through a fraction of them just reminds us that no matter how much we know... it is only a fraction of what we can learn from others! I loved these simple activities for pedagogically exploiting images in the EFL classroom.
